Mapping a customer contract into ASC 606 starts the work of deciding what is deferred, what is recognized, and what still sits in contract balances. This course is built for accountants who record and review US GAAP revenue and need a practical handle on five-step model outputs, allocation, timing, modifications, and disclosure. By the end, the reader can trace a contract through the core revenue judgments and produce entries and balance sheet support that hold up in day-to-day accounting.
The course covers contract identification, combining arrangements, distinct performance obligations, SSP allocation, and the timing split between over-time and point-in-time recognition. It also addresses subscriptions, usage fees, prepayments, gift card breakage, contract modifications, and the presentation and disclosure of contract assets and contract liabilities.
